Harry Connick, Jr.'s career has exemplified excellence across
multiple platforms in the entertainment world. He has received
Grammy and Emmy awards as well as Tony nominations for his live and
recorded musical performances, his achievements in film and
television and his appearances on Broadway as both an actor and a
composer.

The foundation of Connick's art is the music of his native New
Orleans, where he began performing as a pianist and vocalist at the
age of five. Over the past three decades, he has established
himself as a musician, singer and composer par excellence, a
legendary live performer and a best-selling artist with millions of
CDs sold around the world. Connick has also made his mark as
an actor in films (appearing in over 19 films such as "Dolphin
Tale," "Hope Floats," "PS I Love You," "Copycat"), on television
("American Idol," Will & Grace," "South Pacific") and on
Broadway ("Pajama Game," "Thou Shalt Not").

In the fall of 2016 Connick launched "HARRY," a nationally
syndicated daytime television show hosted by Connick and featuring
his touring band. "HARRY" is a daily hour of family friendly
television that seeks to entertain, uplift and inspire. The
show also reflects the unparalleled entertainment skills of Harry
Connick, Jr.'s varied career and the television industry recognized
the debut season of "HARRY" with five Emmy nominations, including a
nomination for Best Host, and a Critics Choice nomination for Best
Talk Show.

Despite his busy career, Connick has always found the time to be
charitable and has done some of his most important work in his
efforts to help New Orleans rebuild after the devastation of
Hurricane Katrina. He, along with friend Branford Marsalis,
conceived of "Musicians' Village," a community in the Upper Ninth
Ward of New Orleans. Musicians' Village provides homes for
Katrina-displaced musicians and its focal point, the Ellis Marsalis
Center for Music, is an after-school teaching facility for
children, a performance hall and recording studio for musicians,
and a gathering place for the community.

Connick's honors, including the induction into the Hollywood
Bowl Hall of Fame, Honorary Doctorates from Tulane and Loyola
Universities and the Jefferson Award for Public Service, have not
led Harry Connick, Jr. to slow his creative pace; they only confirm
his determination to apply his talents in ways that prove
inspirational to other artists and publicly spirited citizens.
